2018 Map of Tempiute Mountain South

About this map

The high peaks of the Timpahute Range and the northern reaches of the Groom Range dominate this 2018 survey of Lincoln County. This area of Nevada is characterized by high-altitude terrain, where Tempiute Mtn and Grants Peak stand as prominent landmarks overlooking the Tikaboo Valley. The presence of several named water sources, such as Old Tikaboo Spring, April Fool Spring, and Sharp Spring, suggests the critical role of specific water points in this arid landscape. Movement through the interior is dictated by the geography of the basins and ranges, with routes crossing at Coyote Summit or following the course of Wildcat Canyon. Remote tracks such as Angus Mine Rd and Black Tank Rd provide access to the foothills, hinting at the historical mining and ranching infrastructure required to work this terrain.
